  1. Yes you're right, I was being dumb as I kind of suspected. I configured the keyboard controls and now it works fine. Cheers
  2. I am using a joystick - it's in a mini-cabinet so I don't want to be using a keyboard. I had already set those options (Enable Custom Joystick Controls option as well) and still nothing. The idea is to hold a button while pushing the joystick up or down so that the list is scrolled by page rather than by line. I can't get this seemingly simple functionality to work for some reason - the setup is pretty standard.
  3. Erm hi again, maybe this is me being stupid but I can't get this paging thing to work at all. In the custom input text file it already had 3 assigned to paging, however holding button 3 while moving joystick up/down does nothing. I've tried assigning other button values but again to no effect - I presume it is the Shift1_Paging setting underneath [JOYSTICK] section. I notice in notepad when I press the buttons I get normal keyboard entries (i'm using an iPac) so I even tried using the scan codes for these instead (so for example I see that in scancodes the letter w=17, w is what button 4 produces for me). It's weird that such a simple function should be beyond me to configure but I guess it is. Any suggestions would be welcome. Cheers.
  4. Ok that's great thanks guys, I'll use the custom joystick settings as I have it in a mini-cab so it's more convenient to not have a keyboard attached. Sounds so simple now don't know why I didn't find it
  5. Can anyone tell me if there's a way to allow the list of games (MAME) to be scrolled by page instead of by line? Right now if I want to play Truxton for example it takes about 10 minutes to get there - I've used other front-ends which allowed the joystick to be pushed right/left for paging up and down, with up/down being used for line-by-line scrolling. If I push the joystick left/right in GameEx it just goes to the other icons which I never really use anyway. I've looked for a way of configuring this functionality but either it doesn't exist or it's too obscure for me to find, or I'm being dumb.. one of 'em. Can anyone help with this? Cheers.
